Discrete and dispersible hollow carbon spheres for PtRu electrocatalyst support in DMFCs
TL;DR: In this article, discrete and highly dispersible hollow carbon spheres (HCSs) were prepared by using a confined nanospace pyrolysis method, in which the polystyrene latex particles were stepwisely coated with a phenol-formaldehyde polymer inner shell and a silica outer shell, and monodisperse HCSs were obtained after pyrolynsis of this spherical composite and subsequent elimination of the outer silica shell.

Combinatorial approach toward high-throughput analysis of direct methanol fuel cells.
TL;DR: A 40-member array of direct methanol fuel cells (with stationary fuel and convective air supplies) was generated by electrically connecting the fuel cells in series by fast screening of voltages between the two terminals of a fuel cell at constant current discharge.
